Thank you so kindly for your generous donation to my Chinoiserie Cause. I will indeed wait to cash the check until December 2011, but will of course collect interest at a rate of 25% per month until that time. This will, of course, allow me to paper the walls of the entire house, not just the bedroom.

As for this shop, I rarely take the trip across the bridge to O-Town but on your recommendation might find the fortitude to do so.

I have to go here! I work in a shop in Walnut Creek (not far away from Oakland) that is actually very similar to this one... The link to the shop is http://filthygorgeoushome.com/Home.html. I hope you like it!
